Begs leave to announce to the

sake of rendering his mode of treatment more
universal and available, and the Health Institute
equally easy of access to patients in all parts of
the state, has removed from Rowland Springs to
Atlanta where he has permanently established a
Health Institute.
The -A.tla.iita Health lii&stitute
is the only institute south superintended by reg
ularly qualified Hygienic Phyeicians, and the
only place where all kinds of'curable diseases
are* scientifically treated without a particle of
medical drug in any form, and with success un
paralelled by any other known process of treat
ing diseases.*
Parties who are, because of continued dosing
and drugging, considered incurable, are re
spectfully requested to visit or correspond with
us. Thousands of chronic invalids r after having
patiently tried the “deadly virtues of the (drug -
ophatic) healing art” and with no other change
than that of growing continually worse and
worse, have under the Hygienic system of medi
cation, been speedily and permanedtly restored
tq health.
